Too many ghost writers in Guyana’s newspapers

Dear Editor,

I have refrained from commenting on the views for and against the credibility of Mr Vishnu Bisram over the past two weeks because I believe if not all of them, then 99 per cent are penned by fictitious writers. It is an unfolding comedy in Guyana that the letter pages of two major news media in this country are manipulated by people who hide under their mothers’dresses while criticizing public figures including Mr Bisram. I have my problems with Mr Bisram’s polls but I will stoutly defend him against his phantom critics whether for or against. There can be no moral justification for an individual to hide under his/her mother’s coat when castigating persons who openly speak their minds and are not afraid to do so. Quite a large number of persons have laughed about the endless Chronicle circus where its letter pages are filled with anonymous, infantile writings. But Kaieteur News and Stabroek have their fair share of ghost writers.
